Case Study: CBRE reclaims productive, revenue-generating space and reduces power risk with Digital Realty

Digital Realty’s dedicated staff can provide remote support at the most critical time 24 x 365

CBRE partnered with Digital Realty to address a common problem in commercial buildings: in-house computer and telco rooms that consume excessive power, generate heat, create fire and security risks, stress floor loading, and inflate utility and staffing costs. These tucked-away server rooms can also expose property owners to liability and limit rentable space.

The solution was to move that infrastructure into Digital Realty’s purpose-built, nearby data centers, offering tighter security, redundant power and cooling, 24x365 remote support, and direct carrier connectivity. The result: energy- and risk-intensive equipment is consolidated offsite, freeing up leasable space and reducing operational costs while improving uptime, connectivity options and generating referral revenue for owners.
